To further develop the biomimetic chemistry of [FeFe]- and [NiFe]-hydrogenases for the catalytic reduction of protons to hydrogen (H 2 ), two new mononuclear Ni(II) ethanedithiolate complexes [{(Ph 2 PCH 2 ) 2 NR}Ni(SCH 2 CH 2 S)] (R =  tert -butyl (But),  1  and  n -butyl (Bun),  2 ) with pendant amine-containing diphosphines were synthesized in moderate yields from the treatments of mononickel dichlorides [{(Ph 2 PCH 2 ) 2 NR}NiCl 2 ] with ethanedithiol (HSCH 2 CH 2 SH) with triethylamine (Et 3 N) as an acid-binding agent at room temperature. The as-prepared complexes  1  and  2  have been fully characterized by means of elemental analysis, nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectrum, and X-ray crystallography. Further, the electrochemical properties of  1  and  2  are investigated in the absence or presence of acetic acid (HOAc) by using cyclic voltammetry (CV), suggesting that they can be considered as the active electrocatalysts for proton reduction to H 2 .
